Frizz and Your Curls

by Keisha Jo

You can play up your hair to make a rocker look, Hip Hop style or a woman who knows what she wants and has confidence about it. However, there are also times when you want your frizz to be tamed and under control. There are frizz free products that can still allow your hair to have volume, but can also add sleek and shine. Or there are products that can smooth the frizz down to soft, touchable curls. Play with your hair and different hair products to find a style that fits you and your personality. Knowing what you like can boost your confidence and make your curls amazing!

Beautiful curls and with great definition starts in the shower. Start by cleansing your hair with a gentle cleansing cream such as the Curl Assurance Gentle Shampoo from Curl Junkie. It has Chamomile and Green tea extracts and other natural ingredients that help to remove build-up from your hair. Proceed with the Beauticurls Leave-In Conditioner that infuses hair's follicles with just the right amount of moisture and strength. Whether you choose to use a Curl Cloth  or a diffuser to dry your hair, you'll need to apply a leave-in conditioner, such as Knot Today which is a lightweight moisturizer designed to take out the knots and leave your curls feeling soft and manageable. From here, you can either style your hair with anti-frizz products while wet or dry, depending on your desired outcome.

There are many viable options to choose from when it comes to taming frizz. If you are looking for much more defined curls, try applying a bit of the concentrated Curling Custard. This can also be used as a great styler when combined with Knot Today, when hair is still wet. For larger, looser curls, you'll want to go with the Quick Curls or Stretch Silkening Crème which helps smooth and stretch curls, with added shine. For those looking for more of a general styling product that can be used on any type of curls, try the Hibiscus & Banana Honey Butta which smells divine and does a great job on taming the frizz. You can also take your fingers and twist the curls into the shape and definition you desire. All of these products and other Curly Emporium products will allow your hair to retain its moisture throughout the day, preventing frizz and unwanted dryness.
Take care of your hair and pamper those curls!
